Tyrol round

Among cyclists, the Tannheimer Tal has been known for a long time because in 2001 the peloton of the Österreich Radrundfahrt passed through the valley. In 2005 the cycling professionals of the Bavaria Tour came to their opening stage on Tyrolean soil and were rewarded with the mountain classifications Tannheimer Tal and Jungholz. Even professionals were captivated by the scenic beauty of the "probably most beautiful high valley in Europe". Lush green meadows, Lake Haldensee and a beautiful mountain backdrop accompanied the cyclists on their race kilometers. Thus, the Tannheimer Tal has also positioned itself as an ideal region for targeted training or extensive routes. "The Tannheimer Tal is an ideal starting point for long road bike routes into the surrounding regions such as Lake Constance or the Arlberg", says Michael Keller, managing director of the Tannheimer Tal Tourism Association and former mountain bike national coach of Austria. Cyclists find not only the ideal starting point in the Tannheimer Tal but also a wide range of accommodations. From 5-star hotels to private rooms you can choose your accommodation. After a nice ride, relax and recharge your batteries. - The Tannheimer Tal
